Hotel Genggon is a bit out of town. It's quiet, rooms have hot water and a private verandah. The hotel has a nice garden and a small sandy beach. The Kubu Bali Hotel in Candidasa offers 5-star comfort at a 3-star price. It used to be 55 US$ before the crisis, it'll probably be half now. |

The easiest way to get around is hiring a taxi. There's an official boot at the exit of the airport, prices are fixed. Price to Bangsal (port to Gili) is 35.000 Rp (11/98), Sengigi 20.000 Rp (price 11/98). If you want to climb Rinjani, you could charter a bemo for about 55.000 Rp for the 2 hour drive (9/98). |

To get to Gili from Bali, take the plane. This is by far the quickest and most comfortable way. Now that prices of flights have gone up, this has become more expensive than the ferry (this situation is much different then the one in 5/97 when prices where only slightly different). There are very frequent flights from Denpasar to Mataram from early morning till the evening with Merpati, the planes are quite small. The flight takes about 30 minutes. If you want to go to Gili, take the 8 am plane. You will arrive at around 9 am in Mataram (take into account some delay). There you can take a taxi straight to Bangsal. |
